MCP Nuclei Server
A Nuclei security scanning server based on MCP (Model Control Protocol), providing convenient vulnerability scanning services.
Project Introduction
MCP Nuclei Server is a Nuclei security scanning service developed based on the MCP protocol. It allows large language models to execute Nuclei security scans, supporting various scanning options and result output formats.
Key Features:
- Support for Nuclei security scanning
- Configurable template and tag filtering
- Support for severity-based vulnerability filtering
- JSON format output results
- Easy-to-integrate MCP service
Installation Guide
Prerequisites
- Python 3.8 or higher
- Nuclei binary (installed and configured)
